“For public information;
We would like to announce to the public that we have experienced an administrative separation at Technopat.net, which has been publishing technology for 12 years and has not deviated from this field of expertise.
Mr., who works as Editor-in-Chief in our institution. We decided to part ways because some of Recep Baltaş’s political posts on social media came to the point of harming our institution.
Technopat’s publishing line was not yesterday, and it will not be associated with any political, ideological person, institution or community today and tomorrow.
We will continue to convey the situations and new developments in the technology sector, which is our field of expertise, to our readers and followers in the most accurate and easily understandable way, and to contribute to our sector as before.

“Hello friends. I would like to make a statement about the recent posts about me and share my sincere opinions with you.
First of all, I am extremely sorry that the shared conversations were manipulated. I did not delete any of the correspondence in question. Those who read these messages will see that I wrote these during an argument I had with a troll who said bad things about our daughter, who died in an elevator accident, because of her religion and race.
I would like to state that, like every sensitive person, I am against war and will not support the death of innocent people. On the other hand, I also shared posts that I did not approve of, due to the trolls I discussed on social media and the stress of daily life. I apologize to everyone for these posts.
I am someone who has worked in the technology industry for many years and has carried out joint projects and collaborations with many leading brands. I would also like to apologize to our business partners with whom I work together, for these posts that do not suit the professional stance I have displayed so far and that put the companies with whom we are currently carrying out joint projects in a difficult situation.
From now on, I will try to be more careful and sensitive in the comments I make about people’s beliefs.
Thank you for your understanding and my best regards..”
